Baltimore Improv @ Bolton Street

Do your kids love theater and improv? Are they creative? Are they ready to have a fun time this summer? Then have them join two well-qualified improv instructors from the Baltimore Improv Group for a week of inspired improv! The camp, for ages 12 – 17, will be held at BSS from Monday, August 9th to Friday, August 13th, 2010.

The camp will run from 9 AM to 3 PM daily. Students will learn the basics of improv, including creating solid scene work and fun characters. The students will also learn different types of improv formats, structures and games. Through it all, the students will see their self-confidence increase while exploring their own creativity and how group trust and teamwork make for amazing and hilarious improv theater.

The week concludes with a special performance for family and friends on Friday, August 13th at 6:30 PM at the Creative Alliance at the Patterson (3134 Eastern Ave.)
